This document discusses methods for estimating age and sex from juvenile skeletal remains. It outlines that sex can sometimes be estimated from pelvic morphology for males, but is less accurate for females, and no single method is accepted. Age is estimated by examining tooth eruption stages, long bone length, and skull suture closure. The difficulties include defining adulthood, poor bone preservation, and ambiguous sexual markers.
